TrewGear滑雪服装公司

TrewGear

房车

创立时间:2008年

创始人:特瑞普•弗雷、约翰•普和克里斯•普

    TrewGear公司的大拇指标识已开始在越来越多的西海岸滑雪场出现。这是因为这家滑雪服装生产商创始人所奉行的古训就是——做自己喜欢做的事。

    创业的第一年,特瑞普•弗雷和双胞胎兄弟约翰和克里斯•普开着房车来销售产品。他们翻山越岭,为的是向零售商和其他冬季运动爱好者推销和销售他们的产品。他们的毅力得到了回报。他们的合伙人估计Trew Gear现在的价值是创始之初的5倍。

    这三位朋友计划扩充他们在线商店和零售商的产品线。在生意当中,他们最喜欢的部分就是——可以在山上玩乐——现在这已经成为他们工作的一部分。

Started: 2008

Founders: Tripp Frey, Jon Pew, and Chris Pew

School: University of North Carolina, Hamilton College, Colorado College, resp.

    TrewGear's big thumb logo is starting to show up a lot more at ski resorts on the West Coast. That's because the founders of the ski- and snowboard-wear maker followed the old maxim -- Do what you love.

    For their first year of operation, Tripp Frey and twin brothers Jon and Chris Pew ran sales out of an RV. They went from mountain to mountain personally promoting and selling their products to retailers and other winter sports enthusiasts. Their perseverance paid off. The partners estimate that Trew Gear is worth five times its original value.

    The three friends plan on expanding their line for both their online store and retailers. Their favorite part about their business -- spending time on the mountain -- can now be written off as work.
